This simple and quick beef sausage bake recipe is a perfect midweek meal, as the entire thing can be cooked in one pan. Hearty beef sausages are combined with an abundance of sweet vegetables, but what really brings this dish together is the sweet, sour and hot mustard and honey dressing. Colourful and flavourful, this is sure to be a dinner time hit!

Ingredients

1 pack of home butchers traditional sausages

Half a butternut squash, cut into 2cm chunks

3 large carrots, peeled and cut into 2cm chunks

1 sweet potato, peeled and cut into 2cm chunks

2 red onions, quartered

1 large clove of garlic

1 tsp of fennel seeds

1tsp dried oregano

2tbsp coarse grain mustard

2tbsp balsamic vinegar

2tbsp runny honey

2tbsp cold pressed rapeseed oil

Salt and pepper, to taste.

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C/ gas mark 4
In a baking tray or roasting dish, combine the chunks of hard vegetables (squash, carrots and sweet potato). Add a little oil, enough to cover the vegetables, before cooking them in the preheated oven for half an hour, turning halfway through.
Add the quartered onions, and continue to cook for a further 20 minutes, turning the vegetables halfway through.
While the veggies are having their second blast in the oven, you can make the dressing for the bake. In a pestle and mortar, first grind up the fennel seeds, before adding the garlic and pounding to a paste. Add the oregano, mustard, honey and oil and seasoning with salt and pepper. This is a rough guide, so make sure you taste your dressing and adjust it to suit you!
After 20 minutes, add your home butchers beef sausages and coat the sausages and veggies in the honey and mustard dressing. Put the entire bake back into the oven for a further half an hour, until the sausages are cooked through and all of the vegetables are soft.
Serve with a peppery rocket side salad and some crusty bread
